Cannot run the wizard [Solved]

Post#1 by pmposse » 14 Aug 2013, 07:31

Hi, This is probably a really simple fix but I can't, for the life of me, get the wizard to run.
I'm mostly a Linux novice so you might have to explain in simple terms, but running Ubuntu 13.04 and using the chmod command as suggested appears to do nothing at all.
Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Hiya, I get no error or anything, when I run the chmod it just drops onto the next line of the terminal, doesn't appear to do anything.

Hi,

i've created already a kiosk- iso with the wizard succesfully. I've run the Desktop and then run the wizard.

After all I decided to create a VM and install Porteus Desktop on a HDD (succesfully). When I now run the wizard in terminal it opened. When I press return the cursor jumps to the end of the window and the menu not goes on. What I'm doing wrong?


Greetings Ronny

@francois
can't find anything spam related in arvatocb's post - please evaluate.

@arvatocb
please delete kiosk files from /tmp folder and start the wizard again.

Sorry for this unamical welcome. :)

http://www.pic-upload.de/ which is the download site for the images provided in the above post, seems to get some payback from dirty sites with pretty nude girls. :twisted:

Closed the report. The ads aren't managed by the website's owner but the company which is paying him to place a banner on the website ... "advertising management" company.

I would kindly like to apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. I choose the hoster just searchin quick @ google. The problem is solved. I just recogniced the cursor jumping out, not the given message. At this time i've got no internet connection which caused the "error".

Greetings
